Tomorrow is the big day. You're no doubt extremely excited to eat dinner and then plop down in front of the TV and watch election results roll in until the wee hours of the morning (or is that just me?). Or maybe you've sworn off TV. You'd rather avoid the talking heads and get your results online.
No matter the medium, it can be a daunting task deciding which channel or website to get your information from. There will be so many to choose from that your head gets dizzy just thinking about it. Who will provide the best coverage? Who will have the information the fastest? It's enough to drive someone insane.
Well you can sleep soundly tonight knowing that Bill Lucey has your back. The former senior news researcher for the South Florida Sun-Sentinel has written a blog entry on his website compiling all the election coverage that will be taking place across multiple media platforms.
If you're channeling your inner couch potato tomorrow like me, Mr. Lucey has outlined the coverage taking place on all the television networks. Curious whether CNN will feature their huge touch screen? According to Mr. Lucey you can bet your ass they will. Worried that CBS won't have Katie Couric? Rest assured she'll be there providing up to the minute coverage.
If you prefer cyberspace, Mr. Lucey details the different web resources and tools you can use to get your election fix. POLITICO will stream a live show, Google News will feature a special section for results and you can even visit the website for the National Conference of State Legislatures for the latest results.
Mr. Lucey's blog is the ultimate resource to figure out your election night game plan. With it, you have no reason to be scared of the overwhelming coverage taking place. You should, however, be very scared of the possible results.
